Logical Fallacy of a dicto simpliciter ad dictum secundum quid / Accident Fallacy

The Accident Fallacy occurs when a rule is applied generally, ignoring the fact that there are exceptions to the rule, an exception is applied in circumstances where a generalization should apply (converse accident).

Examples of Logical Fallacy of a dicto simpliciter ad dictum secundum quid / Accident Fallacy

"Scientists have the rocks and fossils tested using radiometric dating methods and all the dates concur."

The logical fallacy here is that the exceptions and occurances of cherry-picking of data, which are many, are not mentioned.

"The Bible says, 'Thou shalt not kill." Therefore, I could never serve in the military and I believe that the death sentence is wrong."

The logical fallacy here is that the Bible is referring to murder and there are exceptions, two of them being the death penalty for certain crimes and serving in the military.

"The Bible says, 'Thou shalt not bear false witness.' Therefore, I must tell my boss that his wife is ugly."

The logical fallacy here is that the Bible nowhere says that we must tell everything we are thinking, and, if we see things as God sees them, every person is His creation whom He loves. Lying is an abomination, but blurting out our own flawed assessments of other people amounts to telling lies, even if we rationalize such faulty judgements as "just being honest."
